of death is to be given at Niblo's. Years ago
ingenious supers, more or less clumsily clad
in skins, would have represented the Terpsi-
chorean beasts, but we've changed all that
now. The management are unwilling to
entrust such realistic work to supers. They
have suggested the advisability Of Introducing
trained animals, and have been discussing that
mails be introduced, they will clash very pain
fully with the human members OF the cast.
The actors and actresses insist upon having
their dressing-rooms on the stage in conse-
quence of the many changes the play requires
them to make. The animals will need these
rooms for obvious reasons, and that is why
the actors and actresses ~strenuousiy object
to this sacrifice to realism. This difficulty
has caused a hitch in the arrangements and q
temporary stoppage of work. It will proba-
bly, be overcome during the ensuing week.
The Bijou Opera-House has not been lucky
since last May, when Henry T.. Dixey as
sumed a portion of the management of the
house; The ensuing season is felt to depend
Conrad the Corsair" tomorrow night. A
number Of out-of:town managers are coming
TO New York to witness its production.
An offer has been received by cable from
T "; W., f IaISon na fos q E Of ths R BaTsIar's
which the London manage is anxious to give
ut his house in connection with Miss Grace
Hawthorne's performances, which are shortly
to take place there, In the event of this
arrangement being made, the American child,
known as little Oelie, who will be emem-
bered by those who saw THE Golden
Giant" at the Fifth Avenue Theatre last
season, will play the part now being rendered
at the Lyceum Theatre by little Miss Leslie.
Richard Golden and NJ. A. Kennedy are to
follow the example of Robson and Crane
and Evans and Hoey, and be starred through
the country as comedians of equal merit, un-
der the management of W. w. Randall. They
are to eappear IN q farce.c9medy entitled
Byrne. This will probably be produced at
the Fourteenth Street Theatre next May. Mr..
Golden's wife, known to the dramatic profess
sion as Miss Dora Wiley. has retired from the
stage and is now singing in q Boston church
choir.
The ponies which are to be used on the
stage of the Fourteenth Street Theatre, in
the coming production of Rudolph" are
Scotland, and to have cost $1,000. Mrs.
George Knight Is to manage these steeds, and
to keep them from careering into the orches-
ira. They will be attached to a phaeton in
which Mrs. Knight. will be seated, and the
turnout will be in keeping with Rotten
Rows latest edict,
Harry Paulton, who is known as the wri-
ter of the hbretto of " Erminie." will be in
the aSic east St of gf sD o Tbs the production r d. s1co.s Of
THE Arabian Nights" Dorothy" will
probably be given on Oct. 81. in case THE

that time. Richard Golden will then play
the part Of ohogiG lhoa and d. william Gin,
will play the Policeman.
Miss Myra Goodwin has abandoned one
night stands " this season, and declines to
play at any insignificant town. One-night
stands have long been regarded as the bane
actor who goes through a season of e-night
stands comes out comparatively spoiled. He
is obliged to adopt q ranting style. without
which he could not be tolerated by these
himself and the play to make way for the
lusty applause, and all this tends towards de-
terioration.

Manetti and Baldassare Corseni. Alfredo
Gore is the conductor and accompanies.
The first concert will be given IN Nov. 10 at
the Metropolitan Opera-House.
Tony Harris friends are wondering what is
the matter with him. The once glib
tongued, merry comedian is strangely
changed, and no one seems to know when
the change began. Mr.. Hart speaks with
difficulty and only manages TO articulate with
q most painful drawl. Added to this he
stammers somewhat. Mr.. Hart entered the
Office of q theatrical manager yesterday n
asked for Mr.. Golden's address in such a
